Paid In Full: The Platinum Edition is the 1998 compilation of Eric B. & Rakim's 1987 debut album, Paid In Full. This is what Universal made before they also came out with a slightly different Deluxe Edition a few years later. Disc 1 is the original album while Disc 2 features different remixes of songs on the album. The Platinum Edition of Paid In Full was released on 27 October, 1998 by 4th & B'Way/Island Chronicles.
Hip-hop has always been a puzzle, and the two-CD "platinum edition" of 1987's classic Paid in Full reestablishes one of the genre's key pieces in proper context by combining the original 10-song tour de force with a companion collection of important remixes. From Eric B.'s Technics terrorism and sampling symphonies to Rakim's soulful, street-smart flow, Paid in Full is landmark science, a Ph.D. effort building on the early theories of New York City legends like the Sugarhill Gang and Grandmaster Flash. By featuring 10 remixes–including Coldcut's "Seven Minutes of Madness" treatment of the title track and the Wild Bunch's "Move the Crowd"–The Platinum Edition also highlights the duo's influence on DJ and club culture beyond the B-boy set.
